Latin 101 word (7)

I believe the answer is:

(Other definitions for lanyard that I've seen before include "Nautical rope" , "Line for extending or fastening ship's rigging" , "Short rope used as a fastening" , "Cord with whistle attached" , "Part of rigging" .)

I've seen this clue in the Newsday.
